Quantitative extension of Dickson's prime k-tuples conjecture

A finite set of integers {a1,a2,,ak}\{a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_k\} is admissible if, for every prime qq, its residue classes do not cover all residue classes modulo qq. Quantitative extension of Dickson's conjecture. For every arbitrarily small constant δ>0\delta>0, there exists an integer x0=x0(δ)x_0=x_0(\delta) such that, for every xx0x\geq x_0, if a1,a2,,aka_1,a_2,\ldots,a_k is an admissible set with

k(logx)1δ,aix1δ,k\leq (\log x)^{1-\delta},\qquad a_i\leq x^{1-\delta},

then there is a positive integer nxn\leq x such that all of

n+a1,n+a2,,n+akn+a_1,n+a_2,\ldots,n+a_k

are prime. The source presents this as a reasonable conjecture extending Dickson's conjecture; no resolution is given.
